When I click on a thumbnail the larger image appears in a new page. How do I stop it from doing that and making it open in the same page in a specified position.At the moment I can hover over a thumbnail and make the larger image appear nearby, but I'm stuck when it comes to clicking on a thumbnail.Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Are you talking about your own website, or a problem that happens in general when you're looking at other people's websites?

Look check to see if your anchor tags' (links) target attributes are set to target="_blank", make sure it's NOT. hope that helps.

This is happening in my own website, due to my lack of understanding of HTML, CSS etc.

I have checked that. No change no matter what it is set to or if it is omitted.

We can rule out CSS because that won't be the culprit - it sounds like Javascript is more likely to be the problem. Give us a link to the site and we'll see if we can pinpoint where it is.

I am still building my website so I cannot give you a link to it. I could copy a page from it if that would be of any use.
